How many people who post here live or work in Northville? Okay then, now how many people who post here live or work in Detroit? That is why this news is relevant. |

Right susanrosa! And I'm sure the people of Detroit appreciate the post very much and need to be reminded about murders that occur around them. The jesus. I live in a typical suburban neighborhood, and my folks live in a better one then mine. Neither of ours has it's own golf course. |

Um, yeah. If someone is murdered/raped/robbed in my neighborhood I'd like to know about it. |

This forum is not called NorthvilleYes!, and just because I chose to post the news coverage of a particularly disturbing crime does not mean I have to then post an equal or greater crime that occurred in the suburbs so as to balance the news. Furthermore, the incident in Northville received significant coverage while this incident in Detroit received a few bare paragraphs. |

Just wait, in the next breath he is going to complain that the deaths of white women in the suburbs receive more attention than the deaths of black women in the city. |

I'm a racist because I object to the comparison of two different crimes? What I took from Cambrian's comments is that suburban crimes should somehow be given more attention or that I'm wrong in even mentioning a crime in Detroit. Detroit is not as dangerous to the everyday Joe as the news media portrays it to be, but the solution to changing regional perceptions about the city does not lie in simply sweeping things under the rug. |

I'm pretty sure thejesus was being sarcastic. Cambrian, however, is just that stupid. |

Funny! How many threads have you posted / started lately Susan? Not too easy for someone that's never picked up a newspaper to come up with topics for discussion is it? |

"I live in a typical suburban neighborhood, and my folks live in a better one then mine. Neither of ours has it's own golf course." A neighborhood golf course does not make a place "upscale"...see Independence Green in Farmington Hills... Trust me, this area is pretty typical of metro Detroit...it's a decent area, but these condos are on the same block as a McDonalds, a Coney Island and a gas station... |

Yeah, well check how much they cost dummy. Also check how the schools, stores and city services rank. I'd say it's pretty damn upscale compared to anything in Detroit's neighborhoods. I've lived in both. |

"A neighborhood golf course does not make a place "upscale"..." Although in most situations it is the case, there ARE exceptions to rules. I know someone who lives in Romulus and he says that the area near the golf course is the roughest part of the city. |
